What you get for the money
Vodafone European roaming pass
- £16 for 8 days or £21 for 15 days, for Pay Monthly customers without European roaming in their plan.
- A pass starts when you start roaming. You can only hold one at a time.
- A Vodafone pass starts when you start roaming, and you can’t hold two at once, so buy the length that covers your whole trip.
Graba SIM Greece eSIM
- 5 plan sizes for Greece, from 1GB, 7 days to 20GB, 30 days, each a one-off price.
- Runs on Wind, Vodafone in Greece, with 5G where the network offers it.
- Data only. Your Vodafone SIM stays on for calls and texts, so bank codes still reach you in Greece.
Vodafone in Greece: questions
How much does Vodafone roaming cost in Greece?
£16 for an 8-day pass or £21 for 15 days in Zone B. Uses your UK calls, texts and data, up to 25 GB a month. For a trip, that is 3 days: £16.00 (8-day pass); 7 days: £16.00 (8-day pass); 14 days: £21.00 (15-day pass).
Is a travel eSIM cheaper than Vodafone in Greece?
It depends on the trip. Comparing Vodafone’s lowest published option with a Graba SIM plan of about 0.7 GB a day: 3 days, the eSIM is £10.25 less; 7 days, the eSIM is £7.01 less; 14 days, the eSIM is £5.01 less. Vodafone’s price also includes your UK calls, texts and data, up to 25 GB a month.
Does a Greece eSIM work on the islands?
Yes. The plan uses Greek networks, which cover the main islands and their resorts. Signal comes and goes on ferries between islands and on remote beaches.
Will my phone connect to a Turkish network on Kos or Rhodes?
It can, near the coast. Turkey is outside the EU, so your UK network may charge more there. Turning off data roaming on your UK SIM, and using the eSIM for data, avoids that.
